Born in Owensboro, Kentucky, in 1935 to Charles Elliott Newbold, Sr, and Virginia Little Newbold, Charles earned a B.A. from Bethel University and a Master of Divinity from Christian Theological Seminary in Indianapolis. He then served in pastoral ministry until he became Executive Director of the Anderson County Community Action Agency. Later, he combined his love of photography with entrepreneurship, producing slide-sound presentations for business, industry, and occasionally for his family.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1970, he married Nancy McDonald Newbold, his wife of 55 years. Following a profound spiritual experience in 1978 which transformed the course of his life, Charles participated in a glorious Christian home fellowship. After further church experiences, he received spiritual insight that led to writing the book The Crucified Ones. For over three decades, the Lord inspired several other books and numerous writings.<\/span><\/p>\n

He will be remembered for his deep faith, dedication to ministry, artistic eye, and dry sense of humor, as well as his love for family and his spiritual community.<\/span><\/p>\n

An informal celebration of life for friends and family will be held on April 25th at 2 p.m. at Click Funeral Home, Farragut, Tennessee.<\/span><\/p>\n
